At the Shadow Rangers' headquarters, the Shadow Rangers were in this large room, waiting for their leader Venoma to show up. The cobra ranger had an idea and had planned the rangers' next mission for them.

Shanjiâ was growing impatient, the pangolin not the type to stay still. "Argh! Where is that slithering serpent?!" He demanded impatiently as his three teammates glared at him.

"Be patient. Venoma will arrive" Storm calmly explained. "Yeah. She'll be here. In the meantime, do something to chill you out pangolin" Raksha said, the wolf meditating. Storm was counting her arrows while Jag leaned on the wall with his arms crossed.

Shanjiâ glared at the wolf "Easy for you to say wolf. There's nothing to here but wait and sulk over our defeat with the Wild Rangers. And those two pesky little humans!" He complained loudly.

Unknown to Shanjiâ, Jag got irritated by the last part. About being reminded of his defeat. His defeat from Tyge. "We had our tails kicked from them. I became a bowling ball! Whatever that is but it sounds insulting the way the bear used it" he said, puzzled about what a bowling ball is.

"And Storm got grounded by Horus. Raksha bubbled blasted from Lapara. And then Jag got bested by Tyge and those humans" Shanjiâ said, his reminder bugging them all and Jag, starting to growl, had enough.

The black jaguar zoomed straight to the pangolin and pounced on him, pinning him down to the ground with his hand. Shanjiâ got terrified as he looked at Jag wide eye and afraid. Raksha and Storm watched calmly though. They both gotta admit, the pangolin was asking for it.

Jag glared at his teammate infuriated and annoyed "We get it Shanjiâ. We don't need to be reminded of our humiliating defeat at the hands of the Wild Rangers!" He told his teammate furiously, his yellow eyes gleaming with rage. Shanjiâ was terrified from the panther, Jag's hand on his face could retract his claws any moment.

"Defeat has a sting that lingers. Doesn't it Jag?" Jag's ears perked at Venoma's voice as he turned his face away from Shanjiâ to Venoma. The cobra ranger arrived, holding her scepter as she walked down the stairs.

Jag got off of Shanjiâ and stood up. The pangolin quickly rolled into a ball and rolled away from the angry jaguar, relived to escape his wrath. Jag looked at his leader as she approached him and placed a hand on his shoulder "But once we get the Wild Rangers to feel that, we will feel the warmth of victory" she told him smiling wicked at him. The panther smirked at her, finding her words cheering him up. Jag had only one thing in mind: defeat Tyge. And he wanted it bad.

Venoma then moved her hand away from Jag as she opened up a hologram on her gauntlet. "The last time we fought the Wild Rangers, I tracked the location that their portal brought them too. And it leads to a small village located in Singapore, Asia" she explained to them as the hologram showed a neighborhood which is the so called village and it switched to the continent Asia with small blue spot showing Singapore.

"For your next mission, we are going to try and capture the Wild Rangers' human friends, Lóng and Zuna" she told them their mission as the hologram switched and showed Lóng and Zuna.

The cobra turned to the black eagle "Storm. You will fly over the village to find Lóng and Zuna's home. To avoid alerting the Wild Rangers, fly in your pet form. Once you find them, send the coordinates to me and rejoin with your team" she explained and Storm nodded "Understood" Storm said smiling. She'll take any chance to fly, even if to observe.

"Wouldn't the Wild Rangers be there and protect their human friends?" Raksha asked her, unsure with her hand on her hip. Venoma wasn't bothered by this because she had a plan.

"That is why there will be a distraction" she told them and they all stared at her curious.curiously. "Jag, Raksha and Storm. You three along with me will head to a location to lure the Wild Rangers and fight them. Once they leave the house, Shanjiâ..." Venoma explained and the pangolin peeked out of his ball when he heard his name.

"...will go to the humans' house, capture them and bring them to our base. With the humans held hostage, the Wild Rangers will have no choice but to surrender" she explained. Since the Rangers and the siblings were good friends, she believed the Rangers would pick their friends' safety over victory.

Raksha, Jag and Storm smiled, pleased by this plan. It seemed it would work. Shanjiâ however had a different opinion as he unfurled from his ball. "Are you crazy?! Why me?! Why not Jag, Storm or Raksha? Jag's the fastest so he can grab them in once dash. And once Storm finds them, can't she just swoop over and grab them? Or Raksha! She's skilled. She can grab them over!" The pangolin complained, unknowingly irritating everyone everyone hid laziness.

Venoma hissed irritated and twirling scepter, she pointed at him as the purple gem glowed and it shot out a purple energy blast at him, zapping him.

"I asked you Shanjiâ for this mission. So don't complain and do your part in the team! Got it?!" She told him furiously as the pangolin winced from the sting of the zap.

"Yes yes yes. Whatever you say m'lady" he said nervously and smiled nervously. She rolled her eyes at him as she walked away. "Let's put this plan in motion" she said confidently.
